Decent place but nothing special
It was alright , room was good , far walk for parking and pool, balcony wasn’t usable with mesh blocking view, parking is awful for hotel patrons . Area is very Chinese oriented so sometimes difficult to find variety of restaurants. Weird vibe sharing facility with apartment owners and not all hotel front desk staff spoke fluent English which was tough for some things

My daughter and i really enjoyed our stay. We travelled a lot recently because of my daughter's sportst competitions. The Chen was the best within the hotels we staye in recently. We especially enjoyed the shower at the Chen. Also, we loved the convenient environment where diverse food choices are available. We will be back soon.

We arrived at the accommodation and was told out booking was not on their systems and that there was not rooms available - even through rooms were still available online. Staff can only be described as rude . Accommodating and helpful clearly arent a part of the the companies client/customer services 👍

Comfortable room, bed and towels etc. Only issue was that there was no kettle for my cup of tea. The coffee maker was messy and water not hot enough for tea. If there was a small microwave, I could have heated it.
Good to have the fridge and milk supplied.
